YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The United States launched a new round of strikes on Iran on July 13, marking the third consecutive day of attacks as America seeks to secure the pivotal Strait of Hormuz and after President Donald Trump declared the long-fragile ceasefire over.

Trump said the US is reinstating a naval blockade on Iran and would act as a "guardian" of the critical waterway. He added that america would charge countries a fee of 20% of the value of all cargo shipped to cover "any and all costs necessary to do the job of providing safety and security to this very volatile section of the World."
